“Worker Statues of Chinatown" is a project that was first conceived in 2019 with a proposal to the "Public Art for Spatial Justice" grant from New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA). In 2022, the proposed project was picked up by Boston Mayor's Office of Arts and Culture (MOAC), with a secured City buget of $1,000,000 for its realization. When complete, it is to be 4 life-size sets of bronze statues to be installed as permanent public art in prominent public spaces in Boston’s Chinatown. They are to commemorate and to pay tribute to workers who performed historically essential labor that provided livelihood in the Chinese immigrant community. The workers to be recognized are: a laundryman; a restaurant-worker; a garment-worker; and a grandmother carer for a child. The figures, completed as maquettes, were enlarged and modelled in clay to life-size. The sculptures now done, have been cast into bronze by Modern Art Foundry in Queens, New York. The bronze statues are now complete. With the sites secured, the statues will be to combined with granite furnishings in four sites in Boston's Chinatown  as public monuments. They are to serve to honour a broad range of working people beyond those of Chinese origin.
